Stephen L. Chipman (1864-1945) was an early leader of the Church in Utah County and the first president of the Salt Lake Temple who was not an apostle. Chipman studied at Brigham Young Academy (the predecessor of BYU) as a youth. From 1885-1887 he served a mission in the Southern States Mission spending most of his time as a missionary in North Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia. In 1885, before he left on his mission, Chipman had married Sine Nielsen. They eventually became the parents of seven children. One of the Helaman Halls dormitories at BYU is named after Chipman.
